Anthro 4517: Anthropology and Development
3.00 Credits
Washington University in St Louis
A survey of classic and contemporary ethnographies of the "developing" world and of interventions that seek to "develop" these places and peoples. We consider anthropology's uncomfortable proximity to development as an instrument of rule; debates between Gramscian, Foucauldian, Postcolonial, and Liberal perspectives; and new directions in the theory and ethnography of global flows (networks, translocal technological zones, shadow states and economies, counter-movements, and de facto sovereignty regimes).

Anthro 4519: The Moral Imagination in Social Practice
3.00 Credits
Washington University in St Louis
Everything humans do is framed by assumptions about what is real, important, enduring, etc., assumptions that already are implicit in the language they use. When they assess situations, establish priorities, interpret social settings, identify the significance of their affairs, or conceive of a meaningful past, humans employ such assumptions. Sometimes they do so consciously, but often they make these assumptions unthinkingly, uncritically. In this course, we read recent works-journal articles as well as monographs-on the imaginative "worlds" of people in various social settings, to consider how these "worlds" are constituted and how they are reiterated and reinforced in social practice. We also refer back to the classic works in sociocultural anthropology to remind ourselves of the various ways of approaching the comparative study of social practices. Prerequisite: junior standing, two social science courses, or permission of instructor.
